    I keep wanting to do this and any time I try my scalp loses its shit and gets super flaky and I have to go back to shampoo to keep my scalp happy

    Maybe if I toughed it out for several weeks my hair would stop being a greasemop and my scalp would even out on its own, but that seems like a lot of ifs

      Do you use a conditioner with it? If your hair is too greasy, maybe a sea salt spray.

      In any case I'm probably the worst person to give advice, I have to pretty much drown my hair in coconut oil daily.

      People say there’s a few week transition period, but I didn’t really notice that when I did it. I’m sure people’s hair and scalps vary a lot in their natural oiliness.
